I’m sorry I laughed when you pretty much said if you postpone selling your art your collector will end up sleeping with your significant other 😂😭 wow wonderful tips thank you I needed to hear this ❤️

[@driesketels]

I can laugh about it now Esther. Don't worry. It's pretty funny looking backwards.

[@germaniejoseph111209]

Wow, I discovered you yesterday. And you managed to motivate me to start working again after a 6-months discouragement break. Thank you, man! At first, I just stopped to look at the hair, than the eyes😂... But I ended up listening for you for 2 days straight and really "hearing" you. Thank you for everything!☺️

[@dianaferrer7183]

Wow this is some of the soundest advice I’ve heard on the subject! Thank you!

[@Rebelu833]

Great advice, especially at the end. Pruning!!

[@valerie_ellis_fine_art]

Gosh - I never saw the link between not selling art and collectors having sex with your gal/guy - makes perfect sense now you've explained it.

[@driesketels]

Hahahahah

[@driesketels]

Hahahahah

Fantastic and insightful commentary, as usual Dries!

[@driesketels]

Thank you kindly Andrew!

[@houseofrestchurch]

This is my first time commenting. Thank you for your content. It helps me strategies for my sales in 2 local galleries and my website. Each video is so good.

[@driesketels]

You are so welcome David! I'm not much of a commenter myself so I appreciate you taking the time.

[@houseofrestchurch]

Thank you for the reply

[@rusticagenerica]

God bless you for commenting for the first time.

[@rachelartworks14]

This was so funny and helpful, I liked the video so I will be successful!

[@driesketels]

You got this, good luck

[@mkorpalart]

Yes, I've noticed that people looking for physical art more than before ☺️

[@driesketels]

That's a good sign. :)

[@drdr76]

Love your humor and advice.

[@RedFoxPottery]

A few years ago I was a part of the Meerkat streaming app and used to get a lot of people watching my streams asking where they could buy my work and at the time I was anxious about restarting a business because I had already failed at this. Trying again now, and it seems much harder now.

[@driesketels]

Failure can hurt. It takes some time to heal before you can try again. Happy New year, whish you the best of luck.

[@chrisbrown6432]

I like your content. Thanks very much. Also you are not shouting at me and talking in a more pleasant way.

[@driesketels]

You mean in this particular video or just in general?

[@rusticagenerica]

[@padraigcostello8499]

Great content Dries!

[@driesketels]

Appreciate it!

[@brostonmash9556]

I’m still mad at you for not answering my questions on Instagram but I think I’ve punished you enough so I gave you a like on this video🤫.

[@driesketels]

Haha... 😂You make me laugh once again.

[@weoniq]

This is the relief I've dreamed of ever since I started growing on Instagram! All these hours and days spent on all sorts of strategies, such as $1.80, etc., I believed that without them I would not be able to sell my art, but deep down I was waiting for a reason not to do this, because for me it was like a forced and boring waste of time... Thanks of course to Gary Vaynerchuk, because using the $1.80 strategy, I met several friends, but it seems that this strategy has reached its goal in my life, and finally I can breathe out and calmly focus on my art and sales and my customers, not on likes and follows and all that stuff anymore. And it feels so good. Thank you Dries, I watch every video of yours and you are literally a savior (especially with this hair omg). How can I thank you? Your channel is the best gift of 2020 for me.

[@weoniq]

And oh I learn my very poor English while watching tens your videos during last days and now I can watch it without subtitles (still at 0,75 slowed speed though). If only i could thank you equally to that benefit I get from your videos.

[@driesketels]

Your comment just made my day. Love it. I featured it on Instagram :)

[@weoniq]

Dries Ketels wow 🤩 thank you I feel blessed now ✨

[@furnifur]

Ok so I will do watch the Video you suggested and then I’ll go hunt down these collectors! Of course I subbed, you have to a of videos on topics I need. Thanks so much. Btw I really, truly, seriously want to brush your hair. ;-)

[@driesketels]

Hahahaha :) My hair doesn't withstand brushing.

[@furnifur]

@@driesketels sorry about my typos I was rushing

[@drdr76]

Reminds of the guy's hair on that show, I think it was ancient archeology about aliens in our planet's past. LOL

[@oliverhojas]

Great video. Totally agree with you. Size matters 😂

[@driesketels]

Thanks for watching Oliver!

[@Artinsane]

Amazing video bro

[@driesketels]

Glad you liked it

[@aliveinlight]

First time watching you, I enjoyed your video: 'scribed! I wondered if you were talking to me directly? Like you've been in my head...hahaha! Creepy. I have been ruminating on a bunch of strategies and doing nada, in the past told raving fans it's not for sale too..."I don't sell my soul, etc" This melancolic, tragic artist type likes your sense of humour. Thank you.

[@driesketels]

spitting some truth that, deep inside all of us know... Thanks for your kind words Amber;

[@ubaldolucas5607]

No disrespect brother. But you are the kevin david of selling art 😹 love the content by the way

[@driesketels]

I don't know who that is but thanks.

[@sherwinjoshua2586]

Cool hair

[@driesketels]

Thanks

[@joannasarcamedes8191]

can i sell on facebook too...i dont know anything about instagram.

[@driesketels]

Facebook is really done, no organic reach anymore... I wouldn't recommend it

[@msdeeandfamily]

Yikes. Scared me into a LIKE. Lol.

[@driesketels]

How's that possible?

[@msdeeandfamily]

@@driesketels you said I would sell any art if I didn’t pony-up a LIKE. 😂

[@jeanettewilhelm8464]

It's so difficult and frustrating to find collectors, target audience. I spend hours on Instagram liking, commenting, following, posting every day, and nobody buys from there. This superficial world draining me, and I would rather paint that time, I feel like I am just wasting my time there. Also, you have to have multiple skills to be an artist ( photographer, video maker, editor writer, Web designer, carpenter... +psychologist with good social skills??!! 🤪) It's just too much. It's not easy for everyone to chit-chat with strangers on IG, to 'build a community'. Why do I have to 'sell myself' in order to sell my art? Everybody knows that these relationships are just business, not genuine, people don't need fake insta friends, they have real ones so why do we need to go this circles? Every time I got a dm, or a comment like this, I know where it leads, it's not because they are interested in how I am, what I do ... It's because they want to sell. And if everyone knows this why are we doing it? 🤔

[@driesketels]

I can feel your pain Jeanette, it's certainly not easy and there are indeed a lot of skills required to make it work... I wish I could help you further but I don't know anything about your personal situation of course...

[@jeanettewilhelm8464]

@@driesketels you are sweet, I just had to let this out 🤯. I just don't like superficial things, and this fake social media world, but I I will make it work somehow, still in the beginning of this journey just finishing my portfolio, website, art school. I am grateful for your videos 🙏

[@wendyvanputtenart8089]

Your funny, hope to meet you ones in person thanks again for the helpful video

[@driesketels]

You're welcome Wendy and I'm sure we will, the art world is a small world.
